Police are searching for a man who went into a home and shot a mother and son early Thursday.

The unknown man entered the home on Golden Glen Court around 12:30 a.m. and got into a fight with Brenda Gallagher, 42, and her son, Austin Craig, 16, police said. The man then fired shots; the mother and son suffered non-life threatening gunshot wounds.

The suspect was described as a 16-year-old, about 5-foot 9-inches tall, weighing 150 pounds with short brown hair. There may have been some drug activity going on inside the home, deputies say. No arrests have been made.
